A Standard Architecture for Trusted Research Environments

SATRE - Standard Architecture
This Standard Architecture for Trusted Research Environments (TREs) provides a comprehensive high-level architecture for research organisations handling sensitive data. Required capabilities are documented along with the key roles, processes, data and applications that realise those capabilities. By providing this architecture, TRE designers and implementers will be able to identify additions and changes within their organisation to ensure sensitive data can be conducted safely. 

Implementation of the architecture should be done in line with the broader SATRE specification found here:

SATRE and the future UK landscape of Trusted Research Environments
Standardised Architecture for Trusted Research Environments (SATRE) is a DARE UK Driver Project to build a reference TRE architecture and an accompanying implementation. DARE UK is a UKRI funded programme running five Driver Projects in 2023. The SATRE team are aiming to bridge gaps between current TRE provisions and move towards a more collaborative and standardised approach to running, deploying and managing TREs.

The SATRE project has been informed by the needs, wants and aims of the TRE community - including policy makers, builders, operators, users and importantly the general public whose sensitive data are being used within TREs for research for the public good.
